All i have to say is Poor Shaw and that David is one evil S.O.B. I want to see David taken down maybe his head ripped off and spinal cord snapped by an Engineer. 

That scene when he was dissecting shaw creeped me out. Very interesting drawings though

I don't know why, when I saw David dissecting Shaw, I feel some weird sexiness in it. Some kind of sickening love.

No dude, just no. I can think of a few ways to describe what David was up to. Sexy isn't one lol.

Jones, you should seek mental help now. Those are signs of a rapist.

David reminds me so much of H.R.Giger and his process. The drawings exemplify that. Jonesy, I felt the weird sexiness too lol

Just watched this too, crazy that this type of stuff wasn't even included in the movie. He basically says that he is going to use Daniels to create a Queen (!) though, which I figured they wouldn't go there, but this pretty much confirms it. It is David taking to the company, and its showing his facehugger embryos, and then Daniels, as he says something like "one thing left, to create my queen" so.. there it is i guess.

RIDINVAIl - You have no right to make such an assertion against an indvidual with whom you have no actual contact. Your accusation is unofounded and needlessly aggressive.

Jonesy is correct on both counts for Advent and Silent Hill. Both deliberately have sexual imagery. It should be remembered that the series is influenced by HR Giger. As far as Silent Hill goes, one doesn't have to research very far to understand what Jonesy means. It is fine to have a difference of opinion but suggesting a psychiatric diagnosis and suggesting one has a criminal mind are not ok.

This is OT but relevant to a previous post regarding sexual imagery of both the Alien series and Silent Hill. For those whom may not understand about Silent Hill, here is a very basic example of the imagery:

Back to the OT.

I would have liked to see some sort of featurette  with David capturing and experimenting on indigent life forms. Not to spoil, but he did mention it.

This short was just horrendous. I wish I could unsee it. Just being honest.

JOYLITT - Was it extremely graphic? I have been contemplating watching it. However, I am quite easily bothered by extreme violence and gore. :)

Something Real Sorry I just hated it... autopsies being conducted with bare hands, and that clavichord soundtrack... please give me a break.

joylitt Interesting. I enjoyed it and liked the graphic nature juxtaposed with David's matter of fact tone of his account. Would it have been better to have been a part of the theatrical version?

I don't think David had cause for concern with sterile or even aseptic technique in those conditions.

dk Well, let me put it this way... if they wanted Alien Covenant to be really the last Alien movie in a very loooooooooooong time, they should have left it in the theatrical version.  This was too much exposition, too much quirkiness, and in general too much nonsense that has anything to do with the Alien universe.

It also makes a sequel completely unnecessary.
